With well over 500 owners of the First 18 SE (Seascape Edition) worldwide, it proves that it is a perfect boat for recreational sailors. The easy handling of the boat and the organization of the deck is supported by a snuffer system for the Gennaker, Rollfock, and Carbonrigg. Its large open cockpit and hatchback allow two adults to use the boat as a sea camping platform. The fully retractable swivel keel and the catch-up rudder blades allow access to the shallowest bays. Due to its low weight, it is easily trailerable and quickly rigged and ready to sail. Read more information: https://masteryachting.com/en/beneteau-first-18-se/?utm_source=yt
Giorno 269 - L’arrivo a Madeira Pensavate tutti che saremmo andati a Gibilterra. In effetti, lo pensavamo anche noi 😅 Poi studiando l’evolversi del meteo abbiamo visto che si formerà a breve un vento forte che soffia da nord chiamato Aliseo portoghese. Sono previste raffiche anche a 50 nodi con 5 metri di onde al traverso. Non avendo nessuna fretta, abbiamo preso l’unica decisione possibile: deviare su Madeira e attendere che il soffio di questo aliseo si esaurisca. Inoltre oggi pomeriggio abbiamo sperimentato un assaggio di quello che sarebbe stato attraversare quel tratto di mare con condizioni stressanti per noi ma soprattutto per la barca m e siamo stati felici di aver scelto per la sicurezza. Già 30 nodi con 2/2,5m di onda al traverso non sono una passeggiata, non immagino il doppio. L’arrivo invece è stato tranquillo, perché una volta agganciata l’isola siamo stati al riparo dal vento e dalle onde. La vera sfida è stata arrivare alle 3 svegli e operativi 😂 Comunque tutto è bene quel che finisce bene. Abbiamo trascorso una squisita settimana. Tra pesca ricca come non mai (una mattina abbiamo ributtato ben 4 tonnetti in mare), veleggiate sia tranquille sia sportive, ottima compagnia, buon bilanciamento tra serietà e ironia, siamo più che soddisfatti del viaggio. Domani, compatibilmente al lavoro, visiteremo l’isola tutti insieme. Chi è già stato a Madeira? Piaciuta? A domani! 😄 C.
